Re: Can a Crystal be Tested With NANO VNA?


 

Justin,

Either should work for just seeing if the crystal has a resonance near the
expected frequency. I've just used channel 0 for S11 measurements, with
the coax shield to one side of the crystal and the center conductor to the
other side.

In that video he's calculating the various parameters of the crystal using
through S21 measurements going out of channel 0 and into channel 1.

If you have a known good crystal, I'd suggest trying it on that first, so
you know you have your settings correct and know what to expect. You may
need to adjust your frequency range and vertical range for the readings.

Thanks, Rob. Do I need to use both channels or just the "primary?"
